The amino acid taurine has been a mainstay of sports nutrition formulations for many years. But the authors of a recent review paper said the evidence for its physiological effects is mixed at best.
The European soy sector says a UN report that found dairy proteins offer a superior amino acid profile to plant proteins is only meaningful for the malnourished.
A new technique could result in better nutritional and safety
profiles for the coming generation of genetically modified
organisms (GMOs), Spanish scientists have reported.
